I cannot find if project-scoped access tokens (which was a Bronze+ feature) are available in the Free tier, or whether they require Silver.

It's such a glaring omission on GitHub - which only has personal access tokens which give apps full access to all your repos.
First of all, it's not "don't do marketing", it's don't do "user-tracking-and-profiling based advertising". Marketing is so much more, like actual market research to provide a service users actually want.

You have to handle a "right to be forgotten" query within a month, surely this is enough time for one sysop to run a prepared query. If your database is so byzantine that you cant find all reference to a given customer, you are either google or in need of a new architect.

Backups do not need to be deleted immediately, they should however expires and be destroyed in accordance to your data retention policy (Say what you do, do as you say).

Probably shouldn't have used the word "gimmicky" which makes it sound very dismissive. I don't see tiling as a gimmick, but rather a critical element of my day to day workflow, for example.
There was a point in time they were acceptable, but that was too long after DHTML/AJAX was good enough for the simple things, and Flash for the flashy things.

The first iterations were so incredibly slow, bloated and foreign that I would usually close the page after 10 secs or so when the applet was still initializing.

It’s ok to like them and miss them - they did give us Minecraft and stuff. But they were dead long before oracle and long before they were acceptable.
So you get started by insulting your potential customers, then reveal that you yourself actually don't have any customers. Your differentiator in this crowded field is... negging?

Aggressive arbitrary session timeouts in cloud apps is frustrating, especially if your password manager is inconsistent in its ability to autofill accurately.

How do you determine this explicit ownership for issues? I've come across many governance problems linked to a lack of transparency in "bug ownership", but I've often failed to find a common ground for clients and third parties: who's responsible? Who should pay for it?

Quite often it's the one with the loudest mouth or the biggest sponsor who wins.

The death toll in the US for COVID over the last year is up to 60% of the total for AIDS deaths over the last 50+ years. That leads to an urgency for COVID data that doesn't quite exist for HIV/AIDS which presumably hasn't been changing as rapidly.
Agreed. I see no reason to upgrade to the new UI/versions on android.
Thanks for the response. I can appreciate the difficulties you must be facing in organising something of this scale, and I'm impressed by how you're handling it so far.

That said, would you be able to clarify how many spaces there are still available on the paid tiers? By choosing to allocate those spaces to people who have $20-$100 to spend to attend a Zoom meeting, I'm sure you appreciate you are prioritising the input of those from higher income brackets over (e.g:) working class people, students, etc. I do think it's important that this is something that is clear to people who would consider giving money to an ideological effort such as this.

Read, my first favorite comment was https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17613281 and I find it pretty accurate. Sometimes great comments turn grey just after posting only to bounce back up later, thanks to people taking time to read them. I’ve also had showdead enabled in my profile settings virtually the whole time I’ve been here, and been able to vouch for some wrongly killed posts, as the mods say:

> Currently, when an account is banned, a software filter trips, or enough users flag a post, the post goes [dead], meaning only users with ‘showdead’ turned on in their profile can see it. The trouble is that some posts end up [dead] when they shouldn’t be. Banned accounts sometimes post good comments, software filters sometimes have false positives, and users sometimes flag things unfairly.

Pharmacy (i.e. the cost of drugs) is a big contributor to rising healthcare costs and injectables are an increasingly more popular and very expensive way to deliver drugs.

Personally, I don't know if I would ever even consider hiring from a site called "hire me you cowards". It just seems incredibly self important and individualistic.

Honestly, I find that having some basic semblance of cooperation and teamwork skills is much more important to productivity and success than having the best engineer ever. The best engineer ever could probably do everything much faster than the rest of the team -- however I've seen first hand how this kind of attitude slowly chips away at the team spirit due to their self-centeredness. It's surprising how quickly their toxicity can affect a work environment to the point that it affects your whole team's work performance & retention.

I'd rather have a chance to hire an idiot (who will be easier to get rid of) than the certainty a genius who can do the work of 2 people, while alienating everyone else and deftly skirting the line of employment law. It's not a coward or a fear based thing. It's basic logic and efficiency on a whole. This is why some of the best engineers and scientists get passed up -- they're just toxic individuals that are impossible to work with.

I want to emphasise that this isn't saying that I think most brilliant engineers have poor teamwork skills. I just think that the language of this website perfectly describes the kinds of engineers you DONT want. Selfish and self important.

Unless this is parody, in which case, why bother posting this here?
Security in general is a performance and usability killer. If “attackers” were not a thing your internet would be much much faster, hell your smartphone wouldn’t need to encrypt itself or paying in a shop wouldn’t need a chip & pin.

What I’m saying is that a lot of applications have many attackers in their threat models, but advertisers have so far been out of scope.

Before the 1204 sacking it was controlled by Greek speaking Eastern Orthodox christianity and afterwards it was rued by western catholic christians with a Latin mass and a pretty fundamentally different culture. Its known as the Latin Empire and lasted about 70 years before one of the surviving remnant parts of the Byzantine empire managed to recapture the city. So while it was not The Fall Of Constantinople it was certainly A fall of Constantinople.

FWIW I think the overall conversation is well worth having, I was tone-policing a specific comment.

> I think its an important clarifying point in deciding how we want to treat voting against certification.

> Crying whataboutism is a very tempting way to avoid nuance. I see a lot of people propose dramatic, sweeping action. When the consequences and implications of those actions are brought up, everyone cries whataboutism.

Two things: #1) I pretty much agree with you. #2) Aren't you avoiding nuance when you employ rhetorical devices like "everyone cries".

(FWIW, I'm not decrying "whataboutism" above, I'm tone-policing. It's also an odious practice, and I feel a little low and preachy doing it, but WTF, let's go ahead and try to have the nuanced and informed conversion if we can, eh, yo?)

Yes, we love DBT too!

It’s great for handling transformations and since we want to focus on the EL part, we think there’s good synergy there.

Airbyte is already using the DBT CLI internally and as we provide more transformations of the data during syncs, we’ll make it easier to give a better integration with DBT projects downstream:

- Native Transformations as part of sync process: for example, schema migrations for source data changes, un-nesting complex objects columns (from APIs), etc

- Customizable models to override or extend further Airbyte’s proposed transformations to be executed in the same sync pipeline

- Seamless DX between custom downstream transformation and transformations made by Airbyte

- Integration with external orchestrators (Airflow, DBT Cloud jobs) with webhook triggers?

We’re happy to hear more ideas/needs to build this roadmap though!

You can have a look at the current state of Airbyte with DBT here: https://docs.airbyte.io/tutorials/connecting-el-with-t-using...

>Any evidence this has actually changed between the 90s and now?

Experience with the relevant communities (Gnome, KDE, and others, etc) in the 90s and 00s.

One reason for the change since then is that nowadays most things are more feature complete so low hanging fruits are not there (higher cost to entry for newcomers and fewer things to do if you're not "up there" as a developer), plus you need to "compete" or "collaborate" with a number of paid developers from companies like RedHat who handle most of the project and steer its direction wherever the company likes.

Plus FOSS just isn't as glamorous as it used to be:

The year of "Linux of the Desktop" (which as a vision meant mass adoption of Linux to win over Windows in desktops and laptops, not the "but Linux is fine for desktop use today, I've used it for years" or "but billions of Android phones use Linux behind the scenes" we settle'd for) never came.

"Big" companies stopped caring about Linux except as an server thing (e.g. we had Easel, Corel, and others competing for desktop Linux, even IBM and others had an interest, whereas VA Linux was one of the biggest IPO stories).

There are much less stories about the sexiness of FOSS or some FOSS future, and hackers changing everything working together, etc, in mainstream (not industry) media, etc.

Where is the 'Proof' that Joe Biden was born in America? I mean, anyone can forge a birth certificate.

Where is the 'Proof' that he's 82 and not 87?

So you're having a difficult time accepting that for many things in life we use inference and incidental facts, we don't provide forensic evidence.

Moreover, if there was a problem with the election, it's your issue to prove, not the other way around.

If there was such widespread fraud as Trump claimed, it would be relatively easy to prove.

As for 'Politicians shits and power is an illusion' - this doesn't make any sense at all.

Politicians lie and cheat, yes of course, that's why we have oversight, recounts, process, procedure, voting machines etc..

This is more of a laptop review than CPU review, but it does include battery life.

> On our test, which browses the web, runs OpenGL tests and streams videos over Wi-Fi at 150 nits of brightness, the Flow X13 endured for 6 hours and 30 minutes.

> That's closer to other gaming laptops than 2-in-1s. For instance, the Asus TUF Dash F14 lasted a similar amount of time at 6:32. This is a fairly significant drop from the Zephyrus G14 from last year, which ran for 11:32, though it has a lower resolution display.

For a 62Wh battery, it isn't particularly impressive. One would have to wonder if a larger, cooler chassis would help with battery life.
Does this number includes mobile browsers? Given the big mobile browsers do not have adblockers (or even extensions altogether?), that would explain it.
there is no such a thing as an ethical comment.

Comments are a cynical deployment of our knowledge of crowd wisdom, media manipulation, and statistics to make people part with their opinions for others they wouldn't think they agree with.

--

Sorry, there is such a think as "more" ethical ads. If you want to be pedantic and argue they should use "more" suit yourself. But things are not black and white, your comment is in itself "manipulating" the reader trying to convince them that ads are all the same and that they cannot be put on an ehtical spectrum which is not true: tracking ads vs billboard, I'd much rather a billboard (which I hate in and on itself as they are usually just making the place they are in uglier).
Ask HN: What is your employer's policy when your home Internet is down?
Many of us had a bumpy morning, at least those of us relying on Internet services on the East Coast of the US. This was my first "I can't make progress on my tasking, guess I'll just have tea and read for a bit" moment since I began working remotely.

What is your employer's policy regarding outages like this? In my experience, most employers simply eat the time if there's an in-office disruption (network outage, fire alarm, etc). But now that we're all at home, I feel a bit more pressure to get done what I intended to (although I haven't seen an actual policy).

What's expected of you when you're working from home, but can't actually get work due to external factors? Is it documented in an actual policy, or is it more a cultural thing?

It's also very hard for non-native speakers. We don't know what tone is expected when you're expressing an emotion, and to what level. It's kinda part of an accent, but even with good accent, you have to know culture really well, or have a natural ability to mimic others, to be able to fit in.

I agree with you on calling out the moral absurdities in our health care system, and how that is a reflection on our level of social trust. I'd like to see changes, also.

Cynically I would say that politically we have optimized for profit and bureaucracy. Would I be wrong? I'd say that this is because our democracy is imperfect - money, corporations, and corruption are driving too much of our politics.

It's always bothered me that so many people would presume to fix health care at the federal level. For a while Congress has been one of the least trusted institutions in the country. Why do we expect them to fix anything? The Affordable Care Act was anything but that, it did nothing to control costs or fix all the pricing transparency problems. Poor folks get a free yearly visit and screenings but have to pay a few thousand dollar deductible when they are sick (money they typically don't have) before they get any covered care, while the government subsidized insurance premiums go right past the recipients directly into the pockets of the insurance companies.

I'd be more comfortable seeing something like many of the countries in Europe have, price controls on drugs and simple standards set at a national level, with implementation details, tax collection, and administrative details left to the states or provinces.

The states were just starting to innovate before the ACA. Vermont tried single payer. Massachusetts had Romneycare. NY and California we making plans, etc. With the ACA the feds commandeered the whole thing, and didn't do so great a job with it.

I think that the states are in a much better position to fix this, but that the insurance companies and other related incumbents would rather have this controlled from a federal level where they can most easily influence the outcome to be in their favor.

> Would your idea have been to allow the extra hospital capacity to be filled up?

Not completely filled, but yes, this is exactly what I've been saying. If we had allowed the extra capacity to get used, instead of getting rid of it, the lockdowns wouldn't have had to be as strict. Less strict lockdowns means less economic problems, which means we could sustain them longer.

Which gets right back to my original point: As it is now, people have ended up with more pressing concerns than the virus and so care less and less about following the lockdowns.

Also another quick aside, back on that original point - "two weeks to slow the spread"? Lockdowns were sold to us specifically on slowing the spread while we increased capacity, to deal with the increase in patients. There was always an understanding that as long as we don't go past that capacity, no extra lives would be saved, they'd just be spread over a longer period. That's why the original slogan was "two weeks" - it was what we needed to build the extra capacity, then we could stop the lockdowns as long as we kept masks/social distancing.
